Vital Doncaster looks at the form of both Doncaster Rovers and Brighton and Hove Albion ahead of the game at the Keepmoat this afternoon.
Doncaster
Rovers come into the game after dropping more points in injury time last weekend.
They were denied a much-needed win when Peterborough equalised in the third minute of stoppage time in a 1-1 draw.
So far this season at home, Rovers have won four, drawn six and lost five.
They have lost just one of their last seven at home when Blackpool beat them 3-1 in February.
From their other six games, Rovers have taken 12 points from a possible 18 and have beaten Southampton, Leicester and Barnsley whilst drawing with Watford, Cardiff and Peterborough.
Rovers are the lowest goalscorers at home in the championship this season with just 12 goals.
They have only scored more than one goal on two occasions in the 2-1 win over Leicester and the 2-0 defeat of Barnsley.
Rovers are the lowest goalscorers in the championship with just 27 goals this season.
Rovers have gone six games without a win since beating Barnsley on January 2nd.
They are currently bottom of the championship with 25 points from 31 games and are six points from safety.

Brighton
The seagulls are one of the form sides in the championship at the moment and they beat Ipswich Town 3-0 at home last time out.
Last time out away from home, they drew 0-0 at Hull City to make it back-to-back clean sheets for the first time since the start of December.
Brighton are the only side in the championship in 2012 that have yet to be beaten in the league, having gone nine games without a defeat.
Their only defeat in 2012 came at Liverpool in the FA Cup when they were beaten 6-1.
So far this season on their travels they have won six, drawn four and lost seven.
They have scored just 13 goals away from home this season, with just Coventry (7) scoring less.
They have conceded just 19 games on their travels, with just Hull and Reading (13) and West Ham (17) having better defensive records.
Brighton are currently 7th in the championship with 53 points from 33 games.
